I have a Cloudbox (white) on which I want to test fvdw, so I took out the original 3 TB disk and inserted a 500 GB WD Green Power disk. Then I followed the instructions on http://plugout.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2224 including those in the help file install_fvdw_sl_firmware_hlp.zip; I selected the 'UIMAGE-3142-NWSP2CL-KIRKWOOD-24-standalone' kernel file.Everything went smooth with the installation but after the reboot command

Code:

reboot -f

the NAS wouldn't boot, the LED just blinks quickly in blue and there is no telnet or other connection.I tried both the GPT and the MBR options, with the same result.I attach the installer.log file and below is the output from gdisk:

Command (? for help): Final checks complete. About to write GPT data. THIS WILL OVERWRITE EXISTINGPARTITIONS!!

Do you want to proceed? (Y/N): OK; writing new GUID partition table (GPT) to /dev/sda.The operation has completed successfully.

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 60563.There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,and could in certain setups cause problems with:1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

Command (m for help): Selected partition 1

Command (m for help): The partition table has been altered.Calling ioctl() to re-read partition tablecreate new partiton table

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 60801.There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,and could in certain setups cause problems with:1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

38046207 bytes (36.3MB) copied, 2.806867 seconds, 12.9MB/s[/code]the firmware file should 256 MB, so seem you are using a wrong firmware file what files do you have in tftp\firmware directory of the fvdw-sl console ? (I assume you use fvdw-sl console 5.5)

Aah, good spot @fvdw, it turned out that the 4 rar files were not extracted properly and I was missing lots of files... I made a new download, extracted again and everything went as it should. Thanks, it's up and running now and I can't wait to try it!
